1) Do you have plans to fix it? If yes, then when?

2) There are any ways to use the soft on the platform?  With a package, a docker, or something else. We have several premier groups with access to our devices. But one of the specialists has such a computer. Do we need to abandon the specialist or switch to an alternative (like a zerotier)?

    At this time I am not aware of any plans to support the newer versions of MacOS.

      Hi everyone !

      I don't believe that Goto don't have plans to Hamachi start to work on M1/M2 processors !
      M1 processors exists since 2020  !!

       

      Come on guys !!! Let's ask to Goto fix this issue ASAP !!!!

        I agree. GlennD - can we get someone from Goto fix the issue? It seems that Windows ARM at least got some work done.

         

        I continue to pay subscription because it's still faster than ZeroTier or Tailscale for Windows, and it's far better compared to other VPN services out there. I'm slowly migrating away since Goto doesn't seem to care, and a majority of people have switched to ZeroTier. The lag for me just isn't cutting it with ZeroTier or Tailscale. PIA through WireShark works great, except the roaming IPs that get refreshed every 5 hours.

         

        At this point, if Goto can't fix it in the next year, I'll just cancel my subscription. Although Hamachi is much more convenient at scale, Goto just doesn't seem to care, even for paying customers. They'd rather upscale you to $800 when all you really need is a VPN, but in reality, I can always take the AWS route, which is also far more responsive. Unfortunately, I don't use Hamachi for gaming.

         

        I did cancel  my subscription earlier this year but half of my distributed network hasn't migrated away just yet. It's so much easier to install the app than migrate away.

      GlennD- I think GoTo needs to fix this. Many users have since moved on to ZeroTier when Hamachi has worked really well before. Any Mac from 2020 hasn't worked. tlagrone has posted multiple work-arounds but they're not ideal.
